Decline to Join tho Monopoly Formed
by Eastern Firms.
EAST SAGINAW, Mich, Sept. 27.-The
Michigan salt manufacturers will not
join the National association, as indi-
Gated by the press dispatches from Pitts
burgh. The proposed National associa-
ton is on the same plan as the Standard
Oil and other trust companies, which
would virtually compel salt manufactur-
ers to put their property in the hands Of
of the association. Nearly oil the salt
works in this state are operated in con-
nection with lumber mills, being entirely
different from the Eastern methods Of
manufacturing. The president of the
Michigan Salt association, which controls
the salt product in this state, says the
National association movement was
started last June at conference held at
Syracuse which he attended, and after
informing himself of the nature of the
proposed organization he declined to
even recommend Michigan manufactur-
ers to consider the project.

New York Tribune: President
Cleveland's supporters, who have
found it impossible to explain his
course in Maryland, Indiana and
many other states upon any theory of
sincere adhesion to reform, are in the
habit Of turning to Massachusetts to
show that he does not resist his party
manfully. The contradiction is only
on the surface. The explanation is
easy, and we are indebted for it, if
we remember right, to a Democratic
newspaper, the Sun. Mr.. Cleveland
knows that he can never hope to ap-
proach victory in Massachusetts, with
out the support Of so-ca lied indie
pendent Republicans. There he
pursues course, therefore, which he
thinks will win the votes of such
men. The Democrats he is sure of,
for the Democratic party may yelp
and bark and gnash its teeth after the
Intellectual manner of the Massachu-
sets convention yesterday, but it al
ways comes crouching back, like a
whipped dog, alongside of the regular
ticket. In Massachusetts the Presi-
dent is, a mugwump and a civil
service reformer; in Maryland he is a
Democrat and German man.

Northern Pacific Land Open To
4 5zss Settlement.

3. Settlement.
From the st. Cloud Times. ~, Se
. The Register and Receiver Of the
st. Cloud Land Office, are in receipt
of instructions from the G Commissioner
Of the General Land Office, pursuant
to directions from the Secretary Of
the Interior, ordering them to open
to settlement under the general land
laws, all lands IN St. Cloud district
within the indemnity limits of the
grant to the company, heretofore
withdrawn for its benefit, upon which
there are on approved settlements :.
The instructions require, the officers
to give at least thirty days notice to
the public, and by an advertisement
elsewhere, it will be seen that Novem-
Der 7th is the date upon which ap-
plications to enter or fling will be
received.
Under the provisions Of the acts Of
Congsess granting lands to this COM
pany, it was provided that it should
receive ten odd numbered selections
to the mile, making a granted limit
of 20 miles. If from any cause they
did not secure this quantity Of land
within this limit, they were granted
the right to go a further 20 miles
and select indemnity fsr any lands
they may have lost within the grant
ed limits. In this district, the CON-
pany proceeded to and were allowed
to select all the vacant lands in their
indemnity limits, in odd sections,
without specifying what lands they
had lost, and in lieu Of which the
selections we're made. None of these
indemnity selections, however, have
been approved.
The purpose ROW is to open these
lands to settlement, and thus force
the company to prove its aight there
to.
When applications to enter are
presented, they are to be received,
noted and placed on file. The Rail-
road company is then to be notified
and require to present its objections
to the allowance Of the entry within
80 dogs. If no objection is made,
the entry or filing will be accepted.
If objection is made, the officers will
ordera hearing, and decide the n':s'
ter, subject to appeal in either party
It is very likely that the company
will appeal in every case, and thus
the matter will have to proceed
through the long and tendious course
usual in land matters.
